WARNING
OPERATING THE GRILL:
Never use Charcoal or Lighter Fluid inside your Natural Gas Grill. Read and follow all warnings and
instructions contained in the preceding sections of this manual.
BREAKING IN YOUR GRILL:
•
In manufacturing and preserving the components of your grill, oil residue may be present on the
burner and cooking surfaces of your grill.
•
Before cooking on your grill for the first time you should operate it for 15 minutes on HIGH to burn off
residual oils.
PREHEATING THE GRILL:
•
Prior to use, it is recommended that you preheat your grill. This ensures that the grilling surfaces are
at the desired temperatures to sear the food sugars when cooking. After lighting your grill, set the
main burner control knobs to the HIGH position for 10 to 15 minutes.
CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS:
•
Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a gas grill. This adds to the unique flavor of cooking on a
gas grill. Excessive flare-ups can over-cook your food and cause a dangerous situation for you and
your grill. Excessive flare-ups result from the build-up of grease in the bottom of your grill. If this
should occur, DO NOT pour water onto flames. This can cause the grease to splatter and could result
in serious burns or bodily harm. If grease fire occurs, close the lid and turn off the main burners until
the grease burns out. Use caution when re-opening the lid as sudden flare-ups may occur.
WARNING
•
DO NOT leave your grill unattended while in use.
•
DO NOT move grill when in use. Lock wheels in place to stabilize grill.
•
DO NOT use water to extinguish flare-ups.
•
Have fire extinguisher readily accessible suitable for use with gas appliances.
TO MINIMIZE FLARE-UPS:
•
Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.
•
Cook meats with high fat contents (chicken or pork) on Low settings or indirectly.
•
Ensure that your grill is on level ground and the grease is allowed to evacuate the grill through the
drain hole in the bottom and into drip pan.
INDIRECT COOKING:
•
9
Indirect cooking is the process of cooking your food without the heat source being directly under your
food. You can sear meats over a high flame on one side of the grill while slow cooking a roast on the
other (unlit) side of the grill.
ROTISSERIE COOKING:
•
Your grill was pre-drilled from factory to include mounting holes for a Brinkmann rotisserie (sold
separately). Do not use a rotisserie not specifically manufactured for this grill.
•
Read and follow all instructions provided with the rotisserie. Save instructions for future reference.
•
Do not use the side burner when using a rotisserie.
WARNING
•
When using an AC current rotisserie, it must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes:
• In the US: The National Electrical Code – ANSI-NFPA No. 70 – Latest Edition
• In Canada: the Canadian Electrical Code – CSA C22.1
•
Only use a Brinkmann Rotisserie manufactured specifically for use with this grill.
•
The Rotisserie is equipped with a three pronged plug for your protection against electrical
shock. This plug should be plugged directly into a properly grounded 3 prong receptacle. Never
cut or remove the grounding plug. Any extension cord must also have a 3 prong receptacle.
•
All electrical supply cords should be kept away from water and any hot surfaces of the grill.
USING OTHER FEATURES OF THE GRILL:
THE SIDE BURNER:
•
The side burner can be used to prepare side dishes such as beans, potatoes, corn, or to warm
sauces.
•
The burner valve can be adjusted from high to low depending upon your cooking demands.
WARNING
•
Read instructions on lighting your grill to light the side burner.
•
Never close the side burner cover when the burner is lit.
•
Use a 10" diameter pot or smaller that does NOT have an extended handle when cooking on the
side burner. Center pot over burner.
•
Never place more than 15 pounds on the side burner. The side burner is not constructed to hold
weight exceeding 15 pounds.
•
Use caution to avoid bumping grill, side burner or pot to prevent pot from spilling contents
possibly leading to severe burns.
•
DO NOT use side burner to deep fry food in oil to avoid dangers associated with oil igniting
creating a very dangerous situation.

CHICKEN AND TURKEY RACKS
These chromed steel racks hold chicken, cornish hen, duck or
turkey upright and are ideal for smoking, grilling or oven roasting
poultry. The rack allows the meat to cook from the inside as well
as from the outside. This speeds up cooking time, seals in flavorful juices and promotes even browning of skin. It’s a low fat way
to cook poultry because excess fat drips off the meat. When oven
roasting, place poultry on rack in a shallow pan of water to steam
baste to tender perfection. When grilling or smoking, simply place
poultry on rack atop the grill. Makes carving easier, too.
